Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1912 edition. Excerpt: ... RULES IN GRAMMAR AND DICTION CAPITALIZATION No detail of form perplexes publishers more at present than does capitalization. The tendency is to use fewer capitals than formerly, but publishers are not agreed regarding the capitalization of many constructions. Some definite rules will be given, in regard to which there is little or no disagreement; and the student's attention will be called to some usages regarding which there is disagreement. First Words 1. Use a capital letter at the beginning of a. Every sentence. b. Every line of poetry. c. Every direct quotation, except partial quotations from which the first part of the sentence is omitted, as in the following: --He asked, "Why are you here?" Let us, too, hope for rest when we have "crost the bar." d. Every resolution, toast, or similar expression formally introduced. Examples: --Eesolved, That more attention should be given to the study of composition. My Country: May she be ever right. e. Every member of a series of sentences. Example: --We may now ask, Who was Henry Clay? What was his life work? and, What will be his influence upon government in the future? /. Every member of a series of expressions that are separately paragraphed. This discussion of the punctuation of " First Words" is an example. Proper Names 2. Capitalize: --a. Proper names; e.g. George Washington, Ohio. b. Divine names; e.g. God, Saviour, Providence. c. Pronouns referring to Divinity; e.g. He, Thy. d. Adjectives derived from proper names of places and persons, unless much use has caused them to lose the association; e.g. French, Spenserian, arabesque. The General Term with Proper Names 3. Such general words as river, street, county, and school, when used with the names of particular places or things, have usually...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Composition and Rhetoric: Based on Literary Models The book is intended to furnish a complete course in high schools and for beginning courses in academies, seminaries, and normal schools. It is recommended that high school students master first the lessons on narration and description, paying especial attention to devices for ornamentation and to description in the short story; then take up exposition and its combination with narration and description, emphasizing the work on the book review, the historical or biographical essay, and the nature sketch; and complete the course with argumentation and persuasion as found in combination with the other three forms of discourse in the debate and the oration. To Mr. George B. Aiton, State Inspector of High Schools for Minnesota, and to Mr. R. W. Bruere, of the Department of English, The University of Chicago, the authors are indebted for the reading of the work in proof and for many valuable suggestions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Composition and Rhetoric The present volume has been prepared to meet the needs of those teachers and students who require a manual of Composition and Rhetoric somewhat fuller, and rather more advanced, than the same authors' Elements of English Composition. Much of the matter in the two books is the same, but the Manual differs from the Elements in arrangement,1 and it takes up the several subjects in greater detail and carries them farther.

Download or read book Composition and Rhetoric Classic Reprint written by Maude L. Radford and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Composition and Rhetoric It is believed that well-prepared students of the first and second years of the high-school can use this book, although certain schools which have not been able to devote much time to the study of English might find it profitable in the third and fourth years. In either case it is hoped that this book may be a directing and suggestive force, especially if it be supplemented by frank class-criticism upon the themes. Too much can not be said of the value of such criticism from teachers and students. It is often difficult to draw out, but once it is secured, it will be found to have both a stimulating and a restraining influence on the written work of the students, and will make the study of English a pleasure.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Essentials of Composition and Rhetoric IN this book the author has endeavored to present a clear and comprehensible discussion of the essentials of Rhetoric and English Composition, and to furnish the stu dent with suitable constructive and critical exercises.

Download or read book Composition and Rhetoric for Higher Schools Classic Reprint written by Sara Elizabeth Husted Lockwood and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Composition and Rhetoric for Higher Schools Certain demands may fairly be made of any textbook that purposes to serve the cause of good teaching and aims to win an honorable place in the classroom. Two of these demands take the form of the categorical imperative: the book must be practical, and it must be adequate in scope and content. To these two should be added a third - the book must be interesting; for to sentence students to the use of a dull and lifeless text-book is, often, to condemn them to a lifelong distaste for the subject of that particular book. Then, in these days of many books, the newcomer may fairly be asked to show some traits of its own such as stamp personality on a man or a woman, - traits which will mark it out at once from other books in its class. Two of the important characteristics which give this book its distinct individuality are: (1) The cumulative method of treatment shown in the text in the illustrative examples and especially in the exercises; and (2) The constant emphasis laid on the pupil's own thinking and writing. These features are particularly well illustrated in the treatment of the paragraph. In the early part of the book the single paragraph is made the unit of writing; then, naturally and gradually, related paragraphs are introduced; and, finally, these develop into the longer theme.

Download or read book English Composition and Rhetoric written by Alexander Bain and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Composition and Rhetoric: A Manual Numerous attempts have been made, and are still making, to methodize instruction in English Composition. In these attempts, two distinct efforts are made for the benefit of the pupils; to cultivate in them a copious fund of expression, and to render more delicate their discrimination of good and ill effects. As regards increasing the pupils' fund of expression, the English teacher can do comparatively little. The reason is obvious. The command of language is a grand total, resulting from the practice of a life; a small fraction of that total is all that can grow up within the limits of a Course of English Composition. With respect to the other aim - the discrimination between good and bad in expression - the case is different. Much of the necessary instruction can be condensed into principles, and may be impressed by carefully chosen examples. The teacher is here a trainer, and can impart in a short compass, what, without him, would be acquired slowly, if at all. It is this, accordingly, that I account his principal vocation.
